From the "Don't Panic" file.

Washington: If two-time Gubernatorial loser Dino Rossi were to enter the campaign against Patty Murray, he would start the campaign 2% ahead, according to Rasmussen polling.

Take a deep breath, Chris. I doubt that you'll find anyone close to the ground here in the upper left who believes that this bit of "Rasmussen recruitment" has a meaningful relationship with reality. Not that we don't have to get the work done to get Patty re-elected, but if the work gets done, she will be re-elected. I think she'll be a potent top of the ticket, too, helping in some competetive down ballot races.

Dino pretty much shot himself in the foot that last election with his 'lower the minimum wage' nonsense. And consider the source of that poll. What Patty should be concerned with is the current distaste for the democrats lack of spine in getting anything done. A third party just might make things interesting and get a few people off their butts.
